SKU: NXB-MNT-813-010 | Version: 1.0 | Brand: NexBot Robotics
NexBot Robotics 813-010 Tool Adapter Plate ISO 9409-1-100-6-M8 (NXB-MNT-813-010) is a tool adapter plates used in industrial robotics equipment where category-specific fit, electrical or mechanical compatibility, and predictable serviceability are important to buyers. The product should be understood as the exact component named by its category path, not as a complete robot or a generic service item. It supports installation, replacement, and maintenance workflows in robotic production cells by giving procurement and maintenance teams a clearly defined part class, relevant engineering specifications, and application context that matches the actual hardware being purchased.
The NexBot Robotics 813-010 Tool Adapter Plate (SKU: NXB-MNT-813-010) is a high-precision mounting component designed to interface between a robot arm and an End-of-Arm Tool (EOAT). It conforms to the ISO 9409-1-100-6-M8 standard, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of industrial robots. Its Aluminum 6061-T6 construction provides a high strength-to-weight ratio, while the hard-coat anodized finish ensures durability.
Before use, confirm that your robot's tool flange matches the ISO 9409-1-100-6-M8 specification, which dictates a 100 mm bolt circle diameter with six M8 threaded holes. Also, verify that the mounting pattern of your EOAT is compatible with the available threaded holes on the face of the adapter plate. This ensures a secure and precise mechanical connection.
Upon receiving the NXB-MNT-813-010, carefully remove it from its packaging. Visually inspect all surfaces for signs of damage that may have occurred during shipping. Verify the critical dimensions (140 x 140 x 15 mm) and ensure all threaded holes are clean and free of obstruction.
This adapter plate is a passive component, but its weight of 0.85 kg must be included in the robot's total payload calculation. Always add the weight of the NXB-MNT-813-010, the EOAT, all fasteners, and the workpiece to ensure the total does not exceed the robot's rated payload capacity.
The primary function of the adapter plate is to provide a rigid, stable mechanical interface. The integrity of this connection is critical for robot accuracy and repeatability. Regular checks for bolt torque and signs of movement are essential to maintaining performance.
The Aluminum 6061-T6 material and hard-coat anodized finish offer good resistance to common industrial environments. However, avoid prolonged exposure to highly corrosive acids or alkaline substances. For washdown environments, ensure all hardware is of a suitable grade to prevent galvanic corrosion.
The installation of the 15 mm thick adapter plate will shift the EOAT's mounting face away from the robot flange. It is imperative to re-teach or numerically adjust the robot's TCP after installation. Failure to do so will result in positional errors in all programmed points.
| Interval | Task | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Daily | Perform a brief visual inspection of the adapter plate and tooling. Look for any signs of physical damage, debris buildup, or fluid leaks from the tool. | This can be done by the operator at the start of each shift. |
| Weekly | Check for any signs of loosening or play in the mounted tool. Gently apply manual force to the tool to feel for any movement independent of the robot arm. | This check should be performed with the robot de-energized. |
| Monthly | Wipe down the adapter plate with a clean, dry cloth or a cloth lightly dampened with a mild cleaning agent to remove any accumulated dust or grime. | Avoid using compressed air, which can drive contaminants into tooling mechanisms. |
| Quarterly | Using a calibrated torque wrench, verify that all six M8 mounting bolts are still torqued to the robot manufacturer's specification. | Perform this check more frequently in high-vibration applications. |
| Annually | Remove the EOAT and the adapter plate. Inspect the mating surfaces of the robot flange and the plate for signs of fretting corrosion (a fine reddish-brown or black powder), which indicates micro-movement. | If fretting is observed, clean surfaces thoroughly and ensure proper torque procedure is followed upon reinstallation. |
| Symptom | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Decreased positional accuracy or repeatability. | Loosened mounting bolts on the adapter plate or the EOAT. | Power down the robot and perform LOTO. Re-torque all M8 mounting bolts and EOAT fasteners to their specified values. |
| Visible vibration or chatter at the end-of-arm tool during motion. | Mounting bolts have loosened, or the plate is not seated flush against the flange. | De-energize and lock out the system. Check and re-torque all mounting bolts. If the problem persists, remove the plate and check for debris or burrs on the mating surfaces before reinstalling. |
| Fasteners for the EOAT will not thread into the adapter plate. | Incorrect fastener size, cross-threading, or damaged threads in the plate. | Verify you are using the correct thread size. Inspect threads in the plate; if damaged, a thread chaser may be used for minor repairs. If severely damaged, the NXB-MNT-813-010 plate must be replaced. |
| The adapter plate does not fit onto the robot arm flange. | The robot flange is not compliant with the ISO 9409-1-100-6-M8 standard. | Verify the robot's technical specifications. The NXB-MNT-813-010 is only compatible with this specific ISO standard. |
| Surface of the adapter plate shows pitting or corrosion. | Exposure to incompatible chemicals or a damaged anodized coating. | Clean the plate with isopropyl alcohol. If corrosion is minor, it may be cosmetic. If pitting is deep, the structural integrity may be compromised and the plate should be replaced. |
| Robot program is crashing into fixtures or workpieces after installation. | The robot's Tool Center Point (TCP) was not updated to account for the 15 mm thickness of the adapter plate. | Immediately stop the robot program. Re-define the TCP to accurately reflect the new position of the tool's working point. Test the program at low speed before resuming production. |
